Hello all. Ever since I drove off with my Air 2S on the roof of my car, I've gotten the following error:

Upper visual sensor error. Contact DJI Support.

However, I am able to fly fine even though the message never leaves. There is one HUGE problem though: At 50ft out (not up), the drone stops and won't go any farther. The controller tells me I've reached my maxim distance. My maximum distance is set to 'No Limit.'

And when I go up, it stops at 160, stating I'd reached my maximum height. My maximum height is set to 380ft.

Could all this be caused by the sensor error? Is there a fix for this that doesn't require repair?

Thanks :)
 
Tey calibrating the vision sensor using dji assistant 2 for consumer drones . And for maximum height if you are suspecting vision sensor , then you can turn off the obstacle avoidance and fly the drone .

I take it the drone slid off and hit the deck, probably nose first. I think this may be something that a sensor calibration won't fix.

You'll probably need to strip the top cover off and inspect the IMU board, ribbon cables and connections. If you're lucky it'll be a dislodged connector.

Ok, if it comes to that, I'll try it.
